I Do Not Walk Alone

people look down on me
because of the path i walk
the clothes i wear, the way i think,
and the way i talk

the call me a freak,
a geek, an outsider, weird and more
just because i choose to walk
thru Unique's  lovely door

they may call me a loner,
or whatever they wish or want
thats not gonna stop me from writing my life out
in one heck of a different font

they can call me a loner
that does not bother me
i know that i do not walk alone
there are more like me that walk free

i do not walk alone
i have no rerason to be scared
i may walk a lone and distant road
but i don not enter war with my teeth bared

no, i do not walk alone
though i walk a road less traveled
my life is not just a mystery to me
it is a future left to be unraveled

i don not walk alone
my fellow sisters and brothers walk right beside me
i do not walk blind from the truth
the truth is deep inside me

i do not walk alone
nor will i ever
my mind is keen to the choices i make
and i know i am more then clever

i walk the road that was met by fate
and that was chosen for me
i do not wealk alone
because my shadow struts besides me

it struts because i walk proud
because i walk with truth
and even though people cast me down
i keep my attitude couth

i walk because this is my life
and all inside my mind i hear
the voices of those around me telling me to follow my heart
and to hold onto the things that are most dear

these "things" are love, truth, and happiness,
they are faith and strength and hope
because i've learned throughout time
hate's stains do not come off with merely soap

i do not walk alone
because my sisters and brothers walk beside me
i do not walk this lone path on my own...

Because my heart beats strong inside me.
